5844.0. "prob graphing DDCMP link utilization" by GIDDAY::CHONG (Andrew Chong - Sydney CSC ) Mon Jan 24 1994 22:06

	Quick check to see if anyone has come across this before. 
	
	One of my customers is on V1.2 of DECmcc . He uses DDCMP links 
on DECnis 600. When he tries to graph DDCMP link utilizations (live graph)
on the links, it gives invalid parameter value message.  The Modem connect
line has actual speed parameter set to 64000. 

	Is this a known problem ? is it fixed in V1.3 ?

	Here are the details of the error on ddcmp link and ddcmp station
statistics. The outbound/inbound utilization shows "Invalid Value". 
By the way MCC version is 1.3 (not 1.2 as stated in the base note). 

	according to the Performance Analyzer Function Module Manual, the 
inbound/outbound utilization uses a formula which include the following 
counters (all of which are valid as shown in the counters):

	dbt  - data bytes transmitted from the DDCMP station entity counter
	dmt  - data messages transmitted from the DDCMP station entity counter
	dbr  - data bytes received from the DDCMP station entity counter
	dmr  - data messages received from the DDCMP station entity counter
	speed - from the modem connect line (I assume)

	Any ideas ?

Andrew
